WTAC just keeps getting bigger and bigger each year with more competitors and new lap records.
2016 stayed true to this with the highly competitive clubsprint class comprising of more than 45 entrants, the biggest it’s ever been!
Being the entry level class for aspiring amateur drivers to make their mark, it’s not just a proving ground for their skills but also their vehicle setup.

Making their debut this year was Tim Burt and his Nissan Skyline R34 GTT.
Compared to the competition, the Skyline was quite tame with minimal aero, average width tyres and modest power. Knowing full well the braking requirements of the demanding high speed Sydney Motorsport Park GP circuit, Tim equipped the Evo Brembo calipers with the flagship Intima Type D brake pads for the front and Intima SR for the rear – a combo he advises works wonders for him even without ABS.

After two punishing days of maximum attack and scorching temperatures, the Intima equipped Skyline set a personal best of 1:45.9220 which placed them mid field in the rankings.
When asked how the brake pads held up he had absolutely no complaints about them, they pulled up consistently everytime.

Congratulations to Tim and his R34 for an amazing result, we’ll be watching him closely as he and the car progresses!
